This policy explains what cookies this site uses, which third parties see your visit, and how you control both.

What cookies we use
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
ck | Remembers your cookie choice so we don't ask again | Strictly necessary | 6 months |
_fbp, fr | Meta Pixel — measures how our advertising performs and lets us show relevant ads | Advertising | Up to 3 months |
Consent
Strictly necessary cookies are set automatically because the site cannot work without them. Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations we must have your consent before setting anything else, so no advertising or analytics cookies load until you accept them on the banner. If you decline, nothing beyond the necessary cookie is set. The site works exactly the same.
Where the banner appears. Most of this site sets no cookies at all, so no banner is shown. The cookie banner and the Meta Pixel appear only on our advertising landing pages — the pages people arrive at from a Facebook or Instagram ad. If you have not come from an advert, you will not see a banner because there is nothing to consent to.
Changing your mind
You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing this site's cookies in your browser settings, which will bring the banner back. You can also block cookies entirely in your browser — this site will still function.
Services that see your visit without setting cookies
Some things on this site are loaded from other companies' servers. They do not set cookies, but because your browser fetches a file from them they necessarily receive your IP address and basic technical information. We think you should know about them:
| Service | What it does | Who runs it |
|---|---|---|
| Google Fonts | Supplies the typefaces used across the site | Google Ireland Limited |
| Unsplash | Hosts many of the destination photographs | Unsplash Inc. |
| Web3Forms | Delivers your enquiry to us when you submit a form | Web3Forms |
None of these tracks you across other websites, and none of them places a cookie on your device through this site. Web3Forms only receives anything at the moment you choose to send us an enquiry — the details you typed, so that we can reply.
Advertising and the Meta Pixel
The Meta Pixel is provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited. If you accept advertising cookies, data about your visit is shared with Meta and used according to their own privacy policy. You can control ad personalisation in your Facebook or Instagram settings.
